Our Big Special Boy Goes OFF in Boston (Grizzlies vs Celtics - January 15, 1998)

Thursday Dec 14, 2023
Our Beautiful Baby Boy has a night. Seriously, the Big Guy cooks to the point that Tommy Heinsohn wonders if he's going to anchor a championship team. The Celtics press, then press, then press some more. It totally doesn't work, but then Reef and AD start chucking the ball around. Grizz set an all-time record for post entries in one game (probably not, but maybe!) Blue doing Blue things. A solemn moment as Justin and Jeremy bid adieu to the Doug Edwards era.

Shareef Abdur-Rahim puts one on creepy Karl Malone and carries the squad through an epic 4th quarter. John Stockton reminds us why he's a GOATed PG. Not even lying, the Big Special Boy plays all of the first 36 minutes! Sam Mack treats us to an offensive outburst. Antonio Daniels continues to delight and dismay. Stu still doing Stu things (bad).

The Grizz storm the Palace at Auburn Hills. Antonio Daniels looks atrocious but recovers for a memorable moment. Otis Thorpe and the bench mob dominate. We've reached the peak of Mayberry Mountain! The Brian Williams/Bison Dele story is...disquieting. The big special boy puts in some good work. Lindsey Hunter gets his hand stuck in a folding chair. Grant Hill chokes. Jeremy seethes when Justin attempts to do a positive 'What Did Stu Do Now?'. But they're still friends.

Shareef looks like a dang all-star and then doesn't. Please enjoy the Otis Thorpe Experience™ (for a limited time only!). In a related matter, Stu makes (another) one of his all-time, pit-of-despair blunders. Dennis Scott and Michael Finley have the Grizzlies seeing stars and some guy says the Mavs are going 97-0.
BONUS: Jeremy meets and gambles with Gary Payton, while Justin obtains a piece of holy grail Grizzlies memorabilia. Something for everyone, really.

Tim Duncan would've changed everything, but the Grizz couldn't have him. Thanks, Stern.
The draft was weak and, sure, the Antonio Daniels pick was fine. Ho hum.
But! Much more interestingly!! History-altering fate once again knocks at Stu Jackson's door. Will he answer?

George Lynch played 123 games for the Grizzlies between 1996 and 1998. In that time, he logged 8 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and a steal in 21 minutes per game.
Lynch on the relentless losing in Vancouver: "It was tough. My entire little league, college, high school...until I got to the NBA...I probably hadn't lost more than 60 games in the entirety. Then you get here and you lose 60 games in one season. That's a lot of losing."
